Pornografia de vingança: uma análise com relação à violência de gênero

Abstract

This paper addresses revenge pornography, which consists of posting sexually explicit content such as videos, pictures, and intimate text messages without the victim’s consent, in order to humiliate them and make them go through demeaning situations before society. Through the proven data presented herein, such practice exposes itself as gender-based violence, as the victims are comprised of women, being a device currently used by patriarchy and male chauvinism to directly harm the dignity of women. Having said that, this paper elaborates on the historical aspects and how men use such violence to attack them. It is important to stress that this will be demonstrated by the legislation in force as well as implementation policies of virtual platforms so that there is no propagation of said content.
